    Multi monitor support is abysmal


    What is this utter garbage? Once I activate two monitors it's like the third doesn't exist. Even activating the second is a chore as I have to first duplicate and then extend before the third will even become an option. On previous versions, activating monitors was a breeze.

    Abysmal Support

    Today I tried to buy something from the microsoft store via my Windows Phone for the first time after finally upgrading my phone to windows 10. The purchase was blocked (my registered method of payment is PAYPAL) The error message gave instructions to
    go to account.xbox.com > Xbox settings > Privacy & online safety . I navigated to this page of my Xbox account on my PC (a bit baffled why my Xbox account is affecting my Phone store account but still, I'm sure they know best).

    Most of the stuff on this page is related to friends access to your details and your access to theirs all of which I have blocked. I couldn't figure out what to change so I called support I eventually got to speak to someone, they asked me my email account
    which I gave, they asked me again and I gave it again then they asked me to spell it out which I did and again and again and again and I gave up. This person was clearly having problems understanding my English accent (I'm from London I don't have an accent
    as such) and this is a repeat of two weeks ago when I tried to arrange the return of a 4 Month old Xbox360 controller that no longer works. Needless to say I still have the broken controller and I can still not buy anything on my Windows 10 phone. I suppose
    the controller is to their advantage but not being able to buy from the Phone store can do nothing but hurt them.

    Microsoft needs to do much better.

    This was constructive in my decision today that my next phone will be Android or Apple after being a loyal Windows Phone user since the first Lumia simply because I like them, The final straw

    Windows 10 Multi Monitors in remote desktop

    It would appear that this is the issue. However I find it odd that when I had windows 7 pro I could remote connect to a windows 7 enterprise computer and I got multi-monitor support. But when I have windows 10 pro (where multi-monitors is supported), I do
    not get multi monitor support.

    It doesn't matter though, I have since upgraded the other computer to windows 10 pro so I have multi monitor support.

    You're much better off using Nvidia Control Panel or CCC to work with multiple monitors than using Windows.

    I agree, though. That's certainly not ideal.
